The modem you had is rubbish, I had similar problems when I changed from using the usb to the ethernet.
My modems ethernet light would also not come on & I mentioned the problem to the IT guy at work. He told me the ethernet port on these modems was problematic (he had the same one at home) & that if you wriggle the ethernet cable up & down the light will come on, he was right.
I had to jam a piece of card into the port which forced the cables contacts up against the ports contacts. I know of two other people who had the same bother, the best thing is to do what you did & get a new modem.
